Kofeldt Becomes Conscious With Chloroformed Towel Over face and Men in Room. Attempt to murder him by the use of cblorororm. under the mistaken lm pesslon that he was another man. was reported to the police by "W. W. Ko feldt. a checker at the Multnomah Ho tel.- John Martin, an organiser for the Boilermakers' Union, is belle-red to have been the Intended victim of two unknown men whom the detectives are seeking;. Martin says that his life has been threatened frequently. Kofeldt told Deputy District Attor ney Hennessy yesterday that he re tired to his room at the Stratton room ing house. 62 H Third street, about 4 o'clock Tuesday evening, and droDDed asleep. Later, how much later he does not know, he was awakened by a feel ins; of suffocation, and found a towel, reeking with chloroform, pressed over bis face. He became conscious of two men being In the room, and grappled with them. At that they seem to have discovered their mistake, and one, he says, ex claimed: "We thought you were Mar tin." They made a hurried escape. Kofeldt discovered beside his bed a phial which had contained the chlo roform. When Kofeldt related his experience to the woman in charge of the house, she remembered that two men answer ing the description had made Inquiries for Martin several days before, and she had told them where his room was. It adjoins that of Kofeldt. Kofeldt then saw Martin, who ex pressed little surprise at the attempt, saying that he had been frequently threatened by men living here and In Seattle. The men who made the attempt were roughly dressed, and one wore over alls. They have been charged in John Doe complaints with an assault with intent to commit murder. The phial found beside the bed bore the label of the J. A. Clemenson Drug Company. Inquiry made there brought out that men answering the description given bought chloroform in the place twice, from a young boy employed there. A complaint charging the com pany with selling chloroform without keeping a record has been filed. COUNCIL TO TAKE HAND YOUTH RECEIVES PAROLE Eddie White Pleads Guilty to -Having Shot T. W. Malloy. Without notifying Deputy Sheriff Bulger, who made the arrest and handled the case throughout. Deputy District Attorney Page, Monday, rec ommended to Judge Morrow that Ed die Whltev a youthful offender, be al lowed to plead guilty, be given a light sentence and paroled. This was done. The, trial had been set for tomorrow and Bulger had spent a great deal of tlm and energy hunting and sub penaing witnesses. On the morning of July 4, White. who is 17 years old, shot T. W. Malloy, a member of a party camping near Linnton, through the leg with a bul let from a 22-callber rifle. The lad was drunk at the time. John Grim, proprietor, and E. Mun- son. bartender, of the saloon at Linn ton where White is alleged to have bought the liquor, are awaiting trial on a' charge of selling liquor to a. minor. VICE COMMISSION" WILL BE QUERIED AS TO PLANS. If Members Have No Remedy for Conditions Further Usefulness Is Questioned. Has the Portland Vice Commission further excuse for existence? This Is the question which will be propounded to the members cf that body soon, for at the next meeting of me tuy council Mayor Rushlight will be asked to appoint a committee of three to meet with the vice commis sioners and inquire into their future plans, etc., which would be an excuse lor further Investigation. The commission has gathered to gether a lot of information, the source and exact nature of which cannot be divulged. It has made no recommen dations as to a remedy for the deplor able conditions uncovered; therefore what benefit can be derived from fur ther work?" Is the way Councilman Burgard summed up the situation at the meeting of the Council ways and means committee yesterday afternoon. "They probably want more time for a fuller investigation," suggested Coun cilman Daly. "If the public is con vinced that those assisting are not to be given publicity the commission will undoubtedly be enabled to secure more specific Information." "I am willing to give the commission every opportunity, but recommenda tions tor a curatory campaign would be in order. If the information secured is not to be given to the Council," said Mr. Burgard. After a discussion of the powers of the commission, as to whether It was simply to Investigate and report con ditions or seek a remedy following the investigation, it was decided to recom mend to'the Council that the Mayor ap point the committee to investigate fur ther plans of the vice commission. WITNESS SHERIFF'S GUEST Effort Being Made to Find Agency Responsible for Itepartures. Alleged efforts to interfere with 'the conviction of Sam Krasner. charged with extortion, by prevailing upon the witnesses to leave the city, were blocked In Municipal Court yesterday when Max Wagman,- one of the two men who are alleged to have paid Krasner 140 as protection from po lice interference, was turned over to the Sheriff's office. Wagman will be placed under heavy bond. Gross, the other of the two men, is said to be gone already. The "tip" that Wagman was about to flit is said to have come from Dow V. Walker, foreman of the last grand Jury, which returned the indictments against Krasner. Wagman and Gross Informed their attorney that a demand had been made on them and it was arranged that they should comply with It while Detect ives Moloney and Swennes kept watch. Krasner and Charles Harris were in tercepted as they left the conference and the marked money said by the two victims was found in Harris" pocket. Both men were indicted. It is said tnat an investigation will be made to determine what agencies were active In procuring the departure of the witnesses. FLOWER SHOW PLANNED INTEREST TO BE REVIVED IN FLORAL CULTURE HERE.

BILIOUSNESS 0 COflSTIPAIf I. Better Than Castor Oil, Calomel or Cathartics to Cleanse Your Stomach, liver and 30 Feet of Bowels Harm less Laxative for Men, Women and Children. Primitive folks did not need laxa tives. They lived outdoors, ate plenty of fruit, and all of their food was coarse. We modern people are differ ent. We exercise too little, eat little fruit, and our food is too fine too rich. We simply can't have our ten yards of bowels clogged up, liver choked with sour bile and stomach full of foul effete matter and feel well. It means that the food and waste re tained in the stomach and thirty feet of bowels ferments decays. The de cay creates poisons, gases and acids, and those poisons are sucked into the Wood through the very ducts Intended to such in the nutriment. Then we have sick headaohe, become dull, bilious, tongue coated, nervous, meals don't digest, and we feel miserable all over. 80 we must make our choice.! We must like like primitive folks, else we must take artificial means to move the excess bile and wast matter on and out of the system. The safest, most harmless and effec tive stomach, liver and bowel cleanser and regulator for men, women and children Is delicious Syrup of Figs. which doesn t Irritate, gripe or weak en. Its effect is the effect of fruits. It is composed entirely of luscious figs, senna and aromatics. Don't think you are drugging yourself. Syrup of Figs can be constantly used without harm. Ask your druggist for "Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna." and see on the label that it Is prepared by The California Fig Syrup Company. This is the only genuine the old reliable. Refuse, with contempt, the so-called Fig Syrup imitations sometimes offered -to deceive you.
